My first pig was a three legged sow.


With goose loads!!

Some of the meanest boars I've caught with dogs were missing a limb

A salesman stopped at a farmers house. The farmer came out of the house with a 3 legged pig. The salesman asked the farmer why the pig only had 3 legs and the farmer said this is a special pig. Last month the tractor turned over on me, the pig came to the house, got got my wife, she called help and the pig saved my life. The salesman asked again, but why 3 legs? The farmer said that 2 weeks ago the house caught on fire, the pig managed to wake all the family and saved the whole family. The salesman asked again, but why only 3 legs? The farmer said, "a special pig like that, you don't eat all at once"........

Found a little 3-legged boar hog several years ago asleep in the open with a missing foreleg - no stump at all. He was exhausted from trying to feed on one leg and just fell asleep on the ground where he stopped. When my buddy and I first walked up on him, we thought he was dead until we saw he was breathing. We talked in whispers for about 3 minutes before he woke up and started off at just over walking speed for us humans.

My buddy and hunting mentor at the time was so impressed by the hog's will to live that he refused to shoot it.
